Eat it now: Food of gods

The Guardian

By Nikki Duffy

Little native British fruit grows in January (unless you count forced rhubarb, technically a vegetable), so it's the perfect time to indulge in some exotica. After all, things are growing great on the other side of the world. Tangy passion fruit, stupendously good-for-you kiwis and sweet, slippery lychees are all great now, but I'm currently enjoying plump, golden sharon fruit.
